Nearly a year after its initial release, Mortal Kombat 1 continues to engage players with frequent updates and new content. The first Kombat Pack added six characters: Ermac, Homelander, Omni-Man, Peacemaker, and Quan Chi, with Takeda joining as the sixth and final addition on July 23. Previous Mortal Kombat titles, such as Mortal Kombat 11, also included multiple Kombat Packs and characters through expansions like Aftermath. Given this pattern, it was anticipated that Mortal Kombat 1 would follow suit with additional DLC. The San Diego Comic-Con event on July 26 was expected to unveil Kombat Pack 2 and provide further updates for the game.
As expected, the event revealed more content such as expansion titled Khaos Reigns and six new fighters. These characters, as already hinted in a June leak for Mortal Kombat 1, include Sektor, Cyrax, Noob Saibot, Conan the Barbarian, Ghost Face, and the T-1000. Scheduled for release on September 24, 2024, this update will initially include Sektor, Cyrax, and Noob Saibot, as well as new story chapters and the reintroduction of Animalities. Animalities are a special type of finishing move first introduced in Mortal Kombat 3, allowing characters to transform into animals and use their new form to deliver a brutal finishing move to their opponent.
Currently no specific release date given for Conan, Ghost Face, and the T-1000. Additionally, the trailer revealed some intriguing updates: Sektor and Cyrax are now portrayed as female characters. This expansion highlights the ongoing evolution of Mortal Kombat 1 and suggests that fans can expect a wealth of new content in the coming months.
We will be following updates closely when NetherRealm shares more about upcoming contents for Mortal Kombat 1.
